Vim is screwed
in vim when i am in insert mode (i) i hit backspace
instead of deleting (as it allways did) it adds blue '^?' to the text
whats up with it ?
cactus wrote:Sounds like a termcap/terminfo issue, or possibly some other terminal setting.
I essentially agree with cactus.
It's definitely not an issue with Vim itself (or your Vim configuration). Your terminal is misinterpreting your input.
I want to say that the issue could involve /etc/inputrc, but I could be wrong. I think that there are ways to configure input interpretation per-terminal-app.
The shell you're using could also be playing a part (though I'm not sure if that could affect the behavior inside Vim). If I remember correctly, using bash instead of the given default ksh solved the issue (at least partially) for me on one machine.

Urxvt, xterm, vim, and gnu screen.
To make this simple: all i want is 256 color support in one terminal, that will give 256 color support in vim, gnu screen, and not screw up shells i ssh into. If I could get this working in xterm alone consider this solved.
The more I try to fix my problem it seems the more complicated it gets. What I want, I thought was simple:
Now xterm seems to be the most workable solution, I guess I can give up on having clickable links, so that can go on the back burner. But these are the problems i'm having.
Here's the problem point by point:
Urxvt
$ echo $TERM
xterm-256color
Urxvt will run a perl script I have to display 256 colors. Except is does not show the grayscale ramp shown here:
VIM in urxvt does NOT show any colors. It's all white text.
This is my .vimrc
$ cat .vimrc
syntax on
set ignorecase
set smartcase
set incsearch
set hlsearch
let g:netrw_http_cmd = "wget -q -O"
if &t_Co == 256
colorscheme xoria256
else
colorscheme desert
endif
in urxvt Gnu Screen
echo $TERM
screen-256color-bce
the perl script does not display 256 colors like it should.
vim in urxvt in screen again, does not show any colors. all white text.
Xterm
echo $TERM
xterm
Xterm displays the full 256 colors from the script including the grayscale ramp.
vim in xterm displays the desert theme (i would prefer it default to the xoria256, no idea why the 256 color script works but vim doesn't see xterm as a 256 capable terminal).
in xterm, Gnu Screen
echo $TERM
screen-256color-bce ( I do not see in any file where this option is defined)
Xterm with Gnu Screen displays the full 256 colors from the script including the grayscale ramp.
Vim in Gnu Screen in Xterm displays 256 colors properly.
Here is my .screenrc
#terminfo and termcap for nice 256 color terminal
# allow bold colors - necessary for some reason
attrcolor b ".I"
# tell screen how to set colors. AB = background, AF=foreground
termcapinfo xterm 'Co#256:AB=\E[48;5;%dm:AF=\E[38;5;%dm'
# erase background with current bg color
defbce "on"
#term xterm-256color
term screen-256color

To Fix In Xterm
-Get Vim to display 256 colors without Gnu Screen
To Fix In Urxvt
-Get vim to display any color, but preferably 256 colors in urxvt and urxvt with Gnu Screen. (and yes, it's a 256 capable urxvt)
-Get shells i SSH into to recognize the reported term variable
To Fix In Gnu Screen
-Make it stop reporting the term variable as screen-256color-bce without losing 256 color support as this screws up shells i ssh to.
any help would be greatly appreciated. I feel like a dog chasing its tail b/c when I find a fix to one problem, I end up creating 1-2 more.
Last edited by scv5 (2009-07-31 14:11:31)I had similar but different issues regarding this. Now, i have 256 color support in whatever terminal/ssh/screen session I'm in.
The relevant config lines:
.Xdefaults:
XTerm*termName: xterm-256color
URxvt*termName: rxvt-256color
.vimrc
" 256 colors only if you can handle it
if $TERM =~ "-256color"
set t_Co=256
colorscheme zenburn
endif
.screenrc
# term
term xterm-256color
# main options
altscreen on
attrcolor b ".I"
defbce "on"
# some termcaps
termcapinfo xterm-256color 'Co#256:AB=\E[48;5;%dm:AF=\E[38;5;%dm'
termcapinfo rxvt-256color 'Co#256:AB=\E[48;5;%dm:AF=\E[38;5;%dm'
note: this setup caused an issue where background colors in mutt/htop inside screen did not extend passed the line's text. i had to solve that via this workaround.

Use gvim to edit text areas and get it to use javascript.vim syntax file
I have had a lot of trouble with javascript and editting files via apex's "javascript" sections in the page.
The font in firefox did not distinguish various braces well enough for me. I kept accidentally mixing curly braces and parens... And I would now and then put the plsql concatenate operator || instead of the javascript +. Bleah! There are SO many ways to completely break javascript. And the whole javascript herd goes down when just one little function anywhere in there has an errant brace or quote. So I started resenting not using my customary text editor gvim. I have to have this stuff colorized and have showmatch turned on!
So anyway I found that you can edit textareas with gvim, I don't know if this is commonly known or not so
I thought I'd mention it. Or you can use whatever editor you want.
I only tried this on windows but theoretically it works on other operating systems modulo you
adjusting the shell details appropriately.
First of all install the"It's all text!' firefox extension and restart firefox.
then create a batch file something like this:
(NB: don't call a batch file the same name as an executable. That can cause pesky loops :-)
gvimrun.bat:
c:\vim\vim73\gvim.exe %1 -c "set filetype=javascript"
Note the pathname to gvim.exe needs to be customized. Note the parameter for passing the first argument along. (%1) The set filetype is telling it effectively to use the c:\vim\vim73\syntax\javascript.vim file.
so then when you bring up your page in apex , when you put the mouse cursor right below the
down arrow of the vertical scrollbar on the rhs of the textarea, you should see a little blue button
that says "edit". Then right click and choose preferences. Direct it to your batch file.
And if all is well it will work and invoke gvim with syntax coloring. Which makes it just a tiny bit less likely to really flub it.
Now if anyone else wants to pick up the baton and figure out how to get more than one syntax
in effect such as javascript and jquery? I did find a jquery.vim file out there. ...
Now that we know how to do this if someone knows some really super great javascript /jquery
editor that might be way better than gvim I would definitely consider that! Javascript is easy to screw up
Edited by: lake on Jan 2, 2011 11:34 AMHi Mathan. Here is something i have trying to do. This vi does not write it correct... and have I done something wrongly or "stupidly" in code
Problems:
-Second row is inroccet
-If i know that device returns array where is 10 elements. Can I trust that and just return 10 elements from array and changed it to string?
-Can I trust queue in this way?
I think hardest in labview coding is that you dont know what kind component you should use and what is the right way to use them.

Vim Ctrl + Tab for Tabs navigation
:noremap <silent> <c-Tab> :tabn<CR>
noremap! <silent> <C-Tab> :tabn<CR>
This doesn't work for me - any idea why? Ctrl-tab just doesn't shift tabs... I've definitely not bound the combination elsewhere in my .vimrc either.

How can I get Verizon to return my memory card- There screw up
After screaming about 1x a week with this new pre-paid SAMSUNG phone, I finally was able to get the store to take the phone and replace it. Sadly, I was so frustrated with Verizon for my phone never working, and getting the run around, that I was glad to get the "we will get you a new one".
Wasn't happy that they can't just give me a new one off the wall. (that would be 50 bucks please. (phone was 30 days old).
SO, The guy behind the counter advised me, I would get a new one. Took battery, I asked if things were backed up, and he said "yes", the backup synch was set up. "like OK".
So, removed battery and the lid, and the case I bought for it, took my old phone and said wait for new one. (came in today).
I didn't even think of getting my 8GB memory card from the old phone at the time I left the store.
This was 3 days ago (26th of Dec). Today, my new phone came in, it was not synching, not doing the backup right, and then I realized my memory card was not there.
Nicely called the help desk thinking I was calling the store where i returned the phone. NOPE, got tech support in a different state after 14 minutes of listening to switch witch and running around with button pushing. Just to be told "contact the store diectly".
Headed to store, advised of what happened, and the cheerful guy with hte IPAD, typing your name, pretty much said " to bad". It's goneft
No help. Just me trying to stay calm, after the head-aches with this phone. And now I am out an 8GB memory card, that Verizon, in their haste, never took time to remove (but did the battery), and I forgot to remove it myself.
Now, I want Verizon to replace the memory card. Their phone was bad, every week complained about this phone, and in 30 days, I now had to get it replaced.
I take error in not remembering to get it. BUT, figured the techs behind the scenes would have thought of this.
Anyone know of whom I can contact to ask VZN for a new card? I lost some vital pics and info from my realtor, and have to bite that, but this wouldn't have happened, if I could have gotten some satisfactory service, and I still ended up 3 days without a phone.I admit, I did screw up for not checking. I was just soo steamed with the customer support and going back and forth with phone and offices in Charleston, SC and here in VA, I was just getting frustrated with this phone that i had for 1 week, and couple with the craziness of the hustle trafflc of customers during the holidays.
Just a lot of crazy here, but my new phone is in, I had to get the service center to reset things, as the backup synch wasn't right, and I will get a new card.
I just wanted a new phone that worked, and oversaw the issues. This isn't the first time I had to return a phone, but last time, it was a slower pace, and no issues, and I reminded myself to get the card out.
Got 99% of my contacts. Just wishing there was somehow to track the phone, and have hope, but it was nothing that was life critical.. And cost of new cars is cheap.
Chalk up to "pay attention".... but oh, the frustration of 6 visits to the stores in 32 days I had that phone. Ahh!
Happy New Year, and thanks for the replies.... -
This might sound really stupid, but how do you delete a line-break in Vim? Deleting the EOL after the cursor, when you're at the end of a line seems to be 'dw', as that will delete to the next word, therefore deleting the EOL in the middle of it. However, deleting the EOL before the cursor, when you're at the start of a line I can't figure out. 'db' would delete the EOL, but would also delete to the beginning of the word at the end of the line previous. The only way I've found I've been able to use is entering Insert mode and pressing Backspace. Surely this isn't the best method for doing this...
I don't think any of those does what OP wanted - joining upwards.
@ bernarcher
I can't get the negative numbers to work. The manual says only
gJ Join [count] lines, with a minimum of two lines.
Don't insert or remove any spaces. {not in Vi}
Does e.g. '-3gJ' really works for you? Maybe I have some weird settings in my .vimrc.
EDIT: I was thinking about something like
map II i<Backspace><Esc>
Of course you can change the 'II' mapping and maybe add '0':
map II i<Backspace><Esc>0
or whatever tells vim to go to the first char of the line.
'[ count ]II' won't work.

[Solved] Xorg 1.5 screwed up my NVIDIA
Hi,
Today I did a pacman -Syu and I got the newest NVIDIA driver installed and the newest Xorg. Everything broke. Well not exactly everything. But my settings are all screwed up. For a start my screen refuses to load at the normal resolution (1680x1050). I got a default 1024x860 (or whatever it is). Also my colour depth is 16. And regardless of any changes I make in NVIDIA settings manager the changes never stick. Also my compiz-fusion is totally screwed up. When it starts up my screen goes completely white. I have to blindly alt+F2 and run kwin to be able to do anything.
Also my fonts are really small.
Here is my xorg.conf:

hmmm, I have exactly the same problem and I also use the nvidia-96xx.
I noticed that I only get the scrambled text for the lines beyond 20 lines...so if I rescale the height of my window to 20 lines I never get scrambled text and and when I change the height of the window larger then 20 lines, only the 20+ lines get scrambled.

Apple Screwing Customers Who Bought Apple Software Pre-App Store
I bought iWork June 29, 2010. I had downloaded and installed the trial version of iWork and then paid for an activation key.
Last month I bought a new mac book air. Because I downloaded iWork from Apple's website and then purchased and activation key I have no iWork disc.
I contacted Apple to ask for an App Store redemtion code in credit for the iWork license I already purchased (after determining there was no other way to install iWork on my MBA) so that I could install the software on my new machine. To which I was told:
"If you no longer have that trial version on your computer, I'm afraid that you will have to re-purchase the iWork software." -Anthony, iTunes Store Customer Support
So before the App Store I could have re-downloaded iWork from Apple's website and used the activation key to reinstall it on my new laptop.
Now, simply because Apple has changed the way they distribute their software, they say "screw you" to their customers, "pay up again for software you have already purchased".
Thanks Apple...
...What has happened to what used to be the best customer support I had ever experienced?Zachary,
It seems to me that you were talking to the wrong department. The iTunes Store would have nothing to do with this problem. You still have Mac App Store support, AppleCare and your closest Apple Genius Bar to try.

I have the bumper case that screws in so it doesn't fall apart, but i want to take it off. Will the apple store unscrew the case for me? or would i have to go to At&T to have them screw it off?
Hey,
I can confirm what xtremecaron has said, Apple will defo not remove the bumper for you. Best bet is to try different screwdrivers. -
White MacBook dead or dying. Apple Store store screwing me.
I have had an unfortunate event. Two days ago my white MacBook has started to misbehave. I have turned it on, and it powered itself off after a minute. It probably did that about 4-5 times. Eventually, it booted and stayed on for the rest of the day. This has happened with a fully charged battery and plugged-in. Since it has worked for the rest of the day, I did not think more of it. Weird boots have happened before rarely.
Yesterday, it booted fine, but the keyboard was misbehaving. The option key was stuck in the ON postion without being physically pressed. Some letters worked, others created the option+letter key combination.
So, I have taken it to the Apple Store. I have a got a call an hour later saying that he removed the top case and found a small stain in the bottom-right side of the keyboard, which according to him is evidence of liquid damage. The warranty has been voided. The warranty was actually going to expire today on the 14th.
I find this highly suspicious. I have taken great care of it. Besides a scratch or paint transfer on the bottom case next to the exhaust, which I have no idea how it happened, and yellowing of the touchpad, it looks like new. I have read that the MacBooks turn yellow, mine has in less than a month of use. Maybe, due to heat, it has turned yellow or brown inside.
It's pssible they saw that my warranty was going to expire today and thought to screw me. If it's going to expire in one day, why help him?
They want $230. $130 for the top case. $100 for work. I told him to disassemble it further due to the weird boots. I have not yet received a call back if he has found more damage.
I've seen laptops taking a bath. You could float Noah's ark on them. They have major flooding stains from coke, smoothies, and other beverages. I don't drink that suff, nor have I on the day in question, nor did anyone else use it.
It's my only machine. My only means of communication with the planet is my iPhone. Suggestions?
Thank you.So, I thought that I should give an update. After the initial quote for $230 ($130 for the top case and $100 for work) to fix it due to liquid damage, I decided to wait a few days before going back to the Apple Store to research the issue. After a few days, I went to the store. The tech who quoted me the price was not there. When I asked when he will be there, I was told that they can't give out his schedule. One of the Genius Bar employees gave me a new price: $750. A new white MacBook is $900 with the education discount.
When I heard that price, I told him to keep it. I decided to call Apple customer support. I spoke to a few people until I have eventually been redirected to someone called Jen. I explained to her that the Apple Store won't give me a straight answer nor have they proven to me that liquid damage has occurred. She wrote some notes down and said that she will email me a case number. She also said that I should take it back, try to have another tech look at it by speaking to a manager, try to take it to another store, or ship it to a depot. That email never came. She lied to me.
I decided against talking to a manager. There was another person there with an iPod. They told him that they haven't found anything wrong with it, but if he wants to buy a new one and trade the old one, he'll get a 10% discount. He was very disappointed and expected that answer.
Clearly, I think that due to the ***** economy, they are pressured to sell to keep the store afloat and deny warranty claims. I decided against speaking to the manager. He would be the one pressuring them.
I took the laptop back. It was dirty and had a few new scratches. I bought a top case from eBay. It's a factory second grade B, AKA scratched to ****, and some of the metal inside was bended, but I straighten it as much as I could. My old one hand an yellow touchpad, but no scratches. I found a YouTube video on how to disassemble and remove the top case. It's 19 screws and it takes about 5-10 minutes. For that work they were going to charge $100. Since they do this all the time, it probably takes them 10 minutes to disassembly, replace, reassemble. They charge more than a lawyer. What a ripoff!
Once I removed the top case, I was in for a shock. There was NO stain. Also, none of the Liquid Submersion Indicators (LSI) were triggered. Those LSIs are sensitive. They turn pink to red from humidity. Actual liquid does not have to touch them. They were all white. One might think that he was nice enough to clean up liquid residue if that was the case. I very much doubt that. The laptop had dust and hairs in it. If the tech had taken the time to clean up a stain, he would have spent 10 seconds with an air can to blow the dust and hairs away. This leads me to believe that he may not have disassembled the MacBook in the first place. He may have assumed that there was liquid damage on the right side since parts of the keyboard stopped working.
After installing the new top case, everything works. There are no issues whatsoever. I'm going to write an email to Steve Jobs because I've been cheated. -
I need help! my ipod is screwed because i tried to fix it myself
Huh, here is the whole story. I have a fairly new dell computer thats on Windows XP Pro OS. Im not technologically ******** and i go to high school. Around sometime in july i bought my very first ipod (5G U2 Special Ed.). I set it to the auto upgrade setting and transfered all of my cd's into it. Everything was fine until i tried upgrading my ipod for the second time around last week. It downloaded(uploaded, whatever) a fraction of the first new song then it froze. The do not disconnect screen stopped blinking and itunes froze. Then the typical "cannot upgrade mike's ipod, the required file cannot be found" message shows. I click ok and click eject ipod. It re updates it and freezes again. I try the safetly remove hardware thing on the toolbar of windows this time. It tells me it cannot remove the hardware cause its currently in use. Itunes freezes. I restart my computer and the ipod is still frozen at the do not disconnect screen but i do it anyway. It remains frozen. I reset it. I have a busy highschool life and just continued listening to my ipod that worked just fine. I try updating it again later that week and the same situation happens again. I tried again today and it happened again. I read all of the disscussions and forums and find others in my same predicament. Before i actually found the true soultion, i started to restore my ipod. The window says something resembling "please wait a while while your ipod resets itself fully". I see the apple logo and a download bar on the bottom. once downloaded the bar disappears (the logo remains).It stays that way for about an hour. I read another thread about another guy having problems with restoring his ipod that were identical to mine. The solution was to shut down the computer, disconnect your ipod, and try it again. Im lazy and thought i could just remove it and reset it because i thought it was finished restoring itself so i just removed and reset it. The apple logo appears and you hear strange noises like its trying to reboot. Then the noises continue. It appears the ipod is trying to restart again and again. Then the noises stop and the ipod freezes there. Reseting the ipod just restarts the whole process again. I was trapped. Luckily there was an article (id 61584) on this website adressing that same issue. It told me to put it into disk mode and restore it. I connected it onto my computer and followed the steps to put it on disk mode. Apparently i put it in disk mode. My ipod displays a do not dissconnect message in what seemed to be the same color and font as the first gen ipod. I try to restore it and it gives me an error message. I try again and again and it gives me a random error message each time. Now when i reset it, it goes back to disk mode. I screwed up my ipod and fear i may have to service it. The only thing is, i did not buy the protection plan. If you cant tell me how to fix this ordeal at least give me an estimate of how much this will cost to fix it. My parents are already paying for my sisters tuition for college and next year will have to do the same for me(U. of Penn. Baby) They will not be able to afford another ipod.You all probably think im ******** or something right now, but i guess i deserve it. Anything, anything, any advice at all you can give to make my life less stressful.
Oh yeah! in that article (id 61584) the itunes library picture has the band finntroll. I love finntroll! I really cant understand though why a brutal finnish black/folk metal band would be on the sample library. This is also my first post, yeah.
Dell Dimension 8400 Windows XP ProIf u haven't resolved this issue yet, I just did.
What I did:
1. Toggle the hold switch (turn it on and off)
2. Reset to 'Disk Mode'
by pressing the 'Play' and center buttons
simultaneously
(it may take a couple of trials to get it right)
3. Update iPod with latest iTunes in Disk mode.
4. Incase the 'Can't find firmware' error msg is displayed,
follow the instructions in the link given below:

[SOLVED] Problem with vim and wombat colorscheme
Hi there,
I'm having some problems with wombat colorscheme for vim. It's just working on gvim.
I read somewhere that wombat just work in gvim. Is that right ? I'm already using a 256-colors terminal (rxvt-unicode).
I looked here in the forum, but I didn't find anything about.
Just for information I downloaded it from http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1778

Thanks for helping. It worked like a charm ! -
Hi, My Mac is around 2 months old, and I have recently come across a slight problem. I've experienced some slight noises happening such as when I open and close the macbook it makes some sort of clicking noises as if to say the panels are loose or have not been screwed properly... It only happens when pressure is applied e.g. when I am typing I tend to rest the palms of my hand on the two plain sections of the mac (next to the track pad) and this causes some sort of pressure to push down to the connecting panel underneath, this is when the clicking sound happens.
I don't know maybe I'm just expecting too much or it might just be what I think it is, anyway if anyone has experience this issue, feel free to share your point of views or past similar experience. Thanks.Yes.. It's been a while, but I remember thinking the same thing!
Below are a couple of other links where folks reported the same thing!

24" iMac is screwing with my eyes...
This may seem like a joke or like I'm totally ignorant but I have 12 years of professional experience working with Macs.
My eyesight seems to get fuzzy and tired after looking at my 24 inch iMac for a short while. (60 minutes or more) This is the first time I've experienced this and I'm a bit perplexed. I've used every other model of Apple computer and display in the past and have never had problems.
The iMac's resolution is set for the highest res and I've tried playing with brightness and creating a custom color profile to see if it improves. I don't think it's the small size of the text because I have pretty good vision and use a 23 inch display at home. So far nothing has changed with regards to my vision and being able to use the iMac without issues.
I've read about how other devices, such as console video games, can cause problems with some people (headaches, nausea) and they even have warnings on packages about this. Is it possible that the new technology that goes into making the new 24 inch iMac with glossy screen is just screwing with my eyes?alternapop wrote:

No joke. I experienced the same thing with 20" and 24" ALU iMacs. I test-drove both (about one month each) before returning them because of unacceptable color &/or brightness gradients.
I'm a professional software engineer, and spend all day in front of LCD monitors, but never had any eyestrain problems -- at home or at work -- before the ALU iMacs. When I finally traded-in the second ALU for a white 20" C2D, the eyestrain disappeared -- immediately.
I don't think I can blame it on reflections, because the lighting at my home computer desk is close ideal for a glossy screen. Both ALU models were overly-bright (especially the 24"), but Shades.app seemed to cure that problem.
I can't explain it, but it was real -- and I noticed it before reading any related comments/reports from other ALU iMac owners. BTW, I wear reading glasses and have several different strengths for different purposes. I experimented with a few, and none were any better than my usual "computer glasses".

I bought a new Macbook pro in 02/26/2013 from Apple Canadian Ices -003. Than I could not use it, because my cursor uncontrollably was jumping around the screen, I was resumed my trackpad become bulging, Than on11/25/ 2013 they changed my trackpad for free, because was manufactoring defect, but not the bulging battery. They said that is do not needed. Since that my cursor is quiet often quivering, I think my Macbook has serious manufacturing defect. But they said no, during a year period I went to the genius bar at least 15 times, with this and similar problems. I went there yesterday, with different problems, and they said one of the screws came off from my truck pad, therefore they need to fix it and change it. I said: - What, how, what is the real problem? A screw does not comes off just like that? They will change my trackpad again, but not the battery. They said has to rebuild the operation system, I'm saving all of my data right now! I would like to exchange the battery too, or maybe get a new Macbook. My Macbook is 2010 China model. How long I would have this trackpad problem? What are you suggesting?
If it's a 2010 as you say towards the end of your post, it's out of warranty. The battery isn't covered in that case. Why don't you just buy a new battery if that's your concern? If it's a 2013 as you say up at the top, it shouldn't have a bulging battery. How do you know it does? If it really does, ask for the store manager and explain the problem.
